A name, location, or other term entered into a search tool is sent to the outside provider operating that tool. Rice County Busted Mugshots does not store or log those search terms on its own systems.

If you send an email or submit a contact message, we may keep the information needed to respond. We do not share those messages outside our organization unless disclosure is required by law.
